Professional Printing Vs. DIY: What You Need To Know

  • On April 28, 2022
the differences between professional and diy printing

Successful business owners understand where their strengths and weaknesses are throughout their business. They know when they can handle a job on their own and when they need to outsource a project. A little time and money spent on professional assistance can go a long way.

When it’s time for a print project, some business owners may try the DIY approach. This can save a bit of money, but companies run the risk of bad printing that needs to be redone by a professional team. Working with a company like The Print House can save a company time, money, and effort while producing superior results.

Consider these factors when deciding between professional printing and a DIY approach:

Printer Quality

Not all printers are made the same. Home and office printers may be able to produce decent-looking marketing materials, but even a small project can put great stress on a printer. Couple that with costly print cartridges and suddenly a DIY print project isn’t as cost-effective as you may have thought.

Companies like The Print House have professional-grade printers that are made to handle business printing on a major scale. Our machines can produce hundreds or even thousands of pages of printed pages. Branded materials, direct mail, brochures, flyers, or other business promotion materials can be produced in the highest quality possible.

Paper Quality

Another factor to consider is the quality of the paper used for your print project. The highest-grade printer paper can usually only be used in certain printers, not just a typical home or office printing device.

When you want super glossy or fine matte paper for your project, a professional printing job is the way to go. You may even want specialty paper that offers an interesting texture that makes your branded materials stand out from the crowd. Leaving the print project to a professional, you have many more options than trying to handle the job on your own.

Efficiency and Speed

A lot of business owners don’t have the time to dedicate a printer to creating business promotion materials or other print projects. Every minute a printer is offline for a business printing task, the rest of the printers have to pick up the slack for day-to-day work.

A professional printer like The Print House has plenty of devices available to get the job done. Our printers work quickly and efficiently, ensuring high-quality prints in a fraction of the time it would take to do it yourself.

Print Project Size

Sometimes a company needs wide-format printing for its marketing materials or special presentation materials. It’s just not worth the cost and effort to purchase a large-format printer for a single project.

Working with a professional print shop, a business can have branded materials produced at any size it needs. A professional printer can also help owners understand their file formatting to ensure the prints look their absolute best.

 

These are just a few reasons working with a professional printer is a better option than going the DIY route. The Print House has the tools and expertise required to create impressive prints fast and efficiently. Leave all of your business printing tasks to our experts and get peace of mind that the job will be done right.
